Description

Tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene is a chemical compound that is used in the synthesis of other chemicals. It is an intermediate in the production of trifluoromethanesulfonic acid and can be used as a catalyst for polymerization reactions. Tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene can also be used to produce hydrogenated tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene, which has been shown to have anticancer properties. This substance is synthesized by catalytic hydrogenation of cyclopentadiene with a platinum on carbon catalyst at elevated temperatures and pressures. The reaction mechanism starts with the protonation of the alpha-carbon followed by attack by the hydride ion from H2 gas to form an alkoxide ion. The alkoxide ion then reacts with CO2 gas to form the carbanion, which undergoes either an addition or elimination reaction. Tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene can also be synthesized by reacting cycl
